Hey guys! Mark just updated everyone on the
Whittaker situation.
Mark provides a more in-depth explanation of how the GoFundMe money was sent to them.
While it is unfortunate the money raised was not, and will not be used for a new house-
it’s good to know the Whittakers ultimately received it over the last couple years.
Hopefully those that donated to Mark’s Whittaker GoFundMe campaign are satisfied where and how the money was sent.
Mark: thank you for your transparency, and clearing up
the questions many had.
Donate to the GoFundMe and let's buy the Whittakers a new house!

That lady who refused the interview was definitely a dealer
Yeah her and the hubby are defiantly making some illegal money. She pretty much blew their cover but I'm sure nothing will happen to them
@@etholus1000that or she was worried for their safety if they said or they are real life breaking bad
that’s why they got a good truck
@@madmanfishing1069she was definitely worried for their safety. They are older people living alone in a town ran by people importing drugs. To highlight the drugs, exposing them, could hurt their business. These are bad people that wouldn’t think twice about killing them or hurting them. And who is there to save them??? Nobody.
@@madmanfishing1069 They look to well off in that poor ass town to be anything less then breaking bad
That lady that didn’t want to talk to you about the drug issues gave me sketchy vibes…
feds for sure
*Shakes her head* Yeah nah she is tweakin
Ozark vibezzz
Nah she was the ONLY SMART PERSON in the whole damn town!!
she's the producer
chick who refused to comment on drugs is every drug mule i have ever seen
You don't know what you're talking about. You look like a drug mule to me.
The lady and her husband is where all the drugs are coming from he was about to give it up and she shut him up😅
Tyler you have turned ur videos from going across country’s in a straight line to doing something that the news never talks about thank you for observing across the whole country

I love the new direction this channel has taken.
I also feel a fool. I watched soft white underbelly before and ate it up. IDK what to believe anymore
What a joke. You should do your research before smearing someone like this. Shameful.
I agree.
And West Virginia isn't really the s******* he makes it ought to be.
" You should do your research before"
This sums up every video posted by Tyler.
You are accusing and faulting the wrong person. the GoFundMe money was donated towards the purchase of a home for the Whitakers and it was not used for that. The Whitakers are not money managers nor have they had access to that amount of money in the past so why would they need $1K here $5k there? The funds donated for the purchase of a home for the Whitakers were squandered away and my guess including the shopping sprees and bowling alley outings that many believed Mark personally funded. That is the real story and real deception we are learning about thanks to Tyler's journalism.
@laney612 exactly idk why people act like Mark doesn't have a responsibility to help them use that much money responsibly. After all he is the one to put them in the spot light for his own gain. Mark is a snake and so is Tyler.
What was the craziest thing you've done?
"Livin"
He's right actually.
John Denver lied to us.
That was before wv became a pipeline for drugs from Detroit
But I think he lived out in a log cabin in the woods away from people, so the scenery Mike look good from his POV.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😬😂😂😂😂😁😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👀😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That John Denvers full of shit man....LOL. Dumb n Dumber 😁😁
That Jon Denver is full of shit man lol.
You knew exactly what you were doing. Betty doesn’t have the intelligence to explain how much money Mark has already given them. If anyone is exploiting the family, it’s you.
Betty loves to spend the money also, something she hasn’t been able to do in her past. She buys a lot of bulk food, I’m guessing due to how hungry the family was before Mark showed up.
This. Betty isn’t likely making the best financial decisions and isn’t going to understand the scope of what the monetary raised is doing. This exploited them so badly. This guy made a huge error and can’t seem to APOLOGIZE.
Betty, Lorraine, Timmy and Ray all get SSI. Department of Health Services also provides food assistance, medical care, clothing donations, utility assistance and more. They weren't going without.
I've actually seen people with food cards eat better than myself. Tyler should have opened their fridge and I noticed that the camera zoomed around so quickly that nobody could see anything. There are people around here living in sheds and tents. And just because St.Tyler shows up with one bag of groceries for the world to see doesn't mean they've been starving.@@Atherosdel
True ,mark done so much and gave so much to them , mark has proven he gave them money from their account so you go buy them their house . because if you told them you got money they will want it .just wait you will no the truth,mark was good to.them ,they know he was
It seems someone named Paige is hanging out with the Whittakers . Looks like Tyler and Paige ask Betty about the money. After Tyler left Paige called Tyler saying she knows theres more money. She's for some reason really worried no money will come.
You tried to “expose” Mark for exploiting the family, by exploiting the family to create drama for views. How ironic.
good that Tyler exposed Mark - a wake up call - Mark does not own the Whittakars

Respect to that dad for checking you guys out to see what you guys were doing in the neighborhood…
You can tell he’s constantly vigilant and that his life is probably a living hell in that neighborhood because of it. That comment about his daughters wasn’t just a statement but a casual warning, and you gotta respect him for that.
What’s sad is that this guy exploited this family, insinuated that that mark didn’t help them, upset Mark, and now they won’t be receiving anything 🤦🏻♀️
The Whittakers have spent all the money Mark has raised for them (over $100,000) and he's given them his own money at times, don't make shit up.
Tyler is in the business of shock and awe. That's how he grifts by shitting on others.
that was dirty tyler.

Instead of changing a pinned comment 99% of your viewers won't bother reading, how actually taking responsibility for your misinformation and upload an apology to Mark?
My thoughts exactly! And he needs to update the GoFundMe description where he calls Mark’s integrity into question.
Tyler showed his ass and is now doing the absolute bare minimum to repair the damage he’s done to Mark’s reputation. Classy.

Cry about it bitchboy
Clout chasing by accusing Mark Laita of exploiting them is not an honorable way to act. Mark has receipts of the GoFundMe and how he has sent over 100k to them from the fundraiser. Not a good thing to try to actually take advantage of the Whittakers to have them attack the hand that feeds them. Disgusting behavior.
I hope you seriously take a lesson from this. Then take a journalism ethics course.
excactly, this Tyler is a joke
check the pin...

You can clearly see Marks video from a year ago the Whittakers have a new roof, sidding, cabinets, a truck... Did Tyler do any research at all before making this video?
I think not. He clearly didnt watch Mark's content about the family. How he helps them. If he did, he will not say everything he said.

Where's the house then?

@@Kusluvalos The Whittakers spent just over $100,000 from Mark gave them that he was saving for a house or for whatever they needed.

Shame on you for making Mark out as a bad guy. He has receipts.
Luckily now this will all be Tyler’s headache. Hopefully tyler learns something about journalism and honesty from this
@@mball5He better hope the IRS doesn't get involved due to tax purposes. What a shame.. UNSUBSCRIBED
he did the same to another charity org that was replacing schedule 1 narcotics with herb... while supporting a grifter without receipts.
On that episode in the tunnels.
then he went to NYC and filmed government propaganda to say everything is cool there (meanwhile it is so bad the city has been blocked off by trucks and ..)
I am starting to think he had permission to film on Epstein island and the chase was a fake.
it would all make more sense then.
he's a plant...
Exactly! Mark did so much for them, they spent the money almost as fast as it came in.
In my opinion the last thing on their minds was purchasing a new house….if that was a priority then why did they waste all the funds? I’m speaking on Betty mainly and whoever was using her to deplete the funds. Mark has been transparent.
@@ShinobiSpetz47 no one cares XD
Mark has already fixed up the house they are currently living in. You have no idea how bad it was. Bad floors, walls, no insulation, and bad windows. He’s also up front about what they are saving for. However, you must realize it’s their money and if Betty calls and says they need money he has to send them the money. He has taken them to Walmart several times, once to get hair cuts, to visit the family burial site, and for Christmas they even got a tree with decorations. They were all so excited. Mark has been nothing but good to these people. Not just once or twice but many times. He has a special relationship with them. Mark never talked finances with them until he wanted to help fix their current house up that was a disaster. You walked in. Delivered some groceries, and started talking about their Go Fund Me. And then started a new one. I think you over stepped your bounds and you owe Mark an apology. Why didn’t you call him and find out what his plan was and what he has been doing up til now. Where do you think they got the clothes from that they are wearing? And the shoes etc. Mark has plenty of his own money and
care and I mean really cares about people. You walk in and try to destroy everything he has built with these folks. A trusting, caring relationship. You owe Mark an apology.
It's a shame mark has decided to cut ties with the Whittakers after all of this
the glazing is wild 💀
@@d1ckcheese01well deserved , Betty disrespected mark after everything he did for them.

Why would you give illegals a free place to stay and free money while Americans of our own country suffer? Sounds like you're one of those that supports pissing all of our tax money away to different countries. Extremely ignorant comment of yours.
Keep laughing. You wouldn't have the guts to laugh at poor non white people like this though and they're all over this country too.
...but four years of Trump didn't do a damn thing? These folks have at least $1 million dollars worth of whiteness, but it's everyone else's fault. A town full of welfare "kings" and "queens" mething out of 🇺🇲
Currently living in WV. All true. Really weird people here 😧
Nobody has helped the Whittakers like Mark....
And all that help just came to an end as Mark just announced he’s taking down the Gofund me page for them.

Lol mark claims he bought them a car because Larry crashed his.. and they don’t drive.
First of all the money was for the house and the house only, second of all I'd never give them that much money every two weeks or so becuase they need it...what in the actual f, Mark is a con artist and he's a good one...
@@heartoftherobot Betty literally says in the video that larry is gone with the truck, and you can see the nice cars standing outside in Marks videos.

Agreed, however, the Whitikers are mercifully oblivious to it, it's all they have ever known.
They receive plenty of assistance from the kindness of others and they seem to be happy enough.
- bless them
Tyler the way you went about that was soooo sneaky dude
How about you ask Betty what she did with the money instead of mischaracterizing mark? That was a bitch move.
Right???? I think Betty was giving money too all of her family. So she played stupid about the money. She knew it was wrong but when people smell money...they come over to her porch asking for a bit of that.
She doesn’t know , do you guys not see she is incompetent ?
It’s obvious that family members stole the money and that’s not marks responsibility
💯
That would just be rude
I would never question Mark's heart.
Used a bag of groceries to get in the house and throw Marks name around.
Well said.
Didn't the friend from Alabama (Paige) pay for those groceries?
Exactly that! Super shady man.. wearing that sh1t eating grin the whole time & being super awkward with how to make small talk with the family.. he couldn’t wait to get to the hard questioning. What an a-hole.
ikr, he didn't even care enough to buy the groceries@@wvgirl7264
Right, this guy Tyler is a scum bag, be sure to unsubscribe.
Tyler, thank you for bringing awareness to this state. If you are ever near the northern panhandle and want to experience all of the positives we have to offer, you have a place to stay. People focus on the poverty, but we truly are a beautiful state that has a lot to offer and I’d love for you (and your audience) to see that firsthand.
I live about 25-30 minutes away from Huntington, the drug problem is horrible and everybody knows somebody who has been affected from it. You can barely take your kids to Ashland Central Park because it seems every other day, someone's child is finding a needle. Almost every other street you see someone passed out on the sidewalk or passed out in their cars. Seems that no matter where you go, no one is safe from drugs.
Edit: my own personal experience was when I was driving my friend and her son back from the park when we saw two little babies running near a busy road, the posted speed is 35, but everyone was flying down the road and there were no parents in sight. Long story short, cops and cps show up and take these two babies, ages 1 and 3. Their parents where passed out with copious amounts of drugs and alcohol in their system. The house had no power and no running water and these babies were filthy with diapers sagging to their knees.
Well Tyler, Mark came with the receipts! They have been squandering that money away giving it to relatives for drug money. You owe him an apology.
This jackass Tyler would have to have class and honor to admit he is wrong. This guy is trash.
Oh.
You’re surprised decades of inbred drug addicts lied
And out good use to 170 k
Mark makes his money off interview the lowest of the Low and makes a shitload of money off

I said the same thing. Horrible, black heart.
For real! This is disgusting!

The Whittakers did it to them self pissing away all the money that has ever been donated to them, focus on your own problems, rather than commenting, random trash on UA-cam comments that do nothing

And he didn’t do all that for money, eh?😂😂 why does his company have literal ownership of these people? You’re one dumb mf
I’ve watched all marks videos on the Whittaker family. Mark has done more for that family than anyone combined. Going places and spending his money. He’s a great friend and I bet husband and father. Stop talking about him when you don’t know the story.

As far as the Whittakers go, Mark has sent them thousands upon thousands of $. BJ, Larry's daughter lied to Mark and told him her daddy died (which was a lie) and she needed more money for his funeral. She used it to buy drugs and she put Betty up to lying to Mark about it.

Mark just made a response and got on the phone with Betty where she admits he has given them money up to $100,000. Tyler’s updated pin lacks accountability.
Accountability? the GoFundMe money was donated towards the purchase of a home for the Whitakers and it was not used for that. The Whitakers are not money managers nor have they had access to that amount of money in the past so why would they need $1K here $5k there?

Please don't talk about "character " when Mark was not honest about the Gofundme, resulting in over $100,000 of his viewers hard, earned money, thrown away.

@@zachorians1069 Absolutely. I know Mark Laita will be reported for sure, for GoFundMe fraud. Accepting over $150,000 for a "house" that never happened.
Seriously. He is worse than anything he accused Mark of being. How ironic.

Mark did the Whittakers a solid and you flushed it
Hell yeah and now it's Tyler's headache. Tyler is not gonna help them like Mark did.
If anyone will take the money he makes off the Whittaker's it'll be THIS little wannabe, not Mark. He showed receipts of ALL bank transfers to Betty's bank account and she was calling him every other week demanding their money.
Mark seems to have chosen to flush it himself… it’s silly to claim that Tyler is the reason Mark would abandon a family he has claimed to enjoy helping for so long.
@@lilithngray He came up with a plot for youtube content to expose Mark and stop the donations that the family was getting and it worked perfectly. Really shows how fragile this family's situation was.
@@Apple_3.1415 After it has been aired out that the numbers don't quite work, the writing was on the wall that the donations would abruptly dry up and Mark is going to face backlash. The people donating didn't want to see the family living in the lowest of poverty year after year so that every dollar went to a house. There is always going to be a vocal internet minority, and without the new donations it is very easy to make it not worth it for Mark to continue. If you don't believe this family should be getting donations of other people's money, then I suppose you won.
As a native West Virginia it’s extremely sad to see the state characterized this way once again things. it sucks to see our state characterized this way. West Virginia is a really easy target and no new ground is really being broken here. It would’ve been far more interesting to highlight that the whole state isn’t like this. There are plenty of areas in the state that are actually very nice, and especially around Morgantown and Fairmont the cyber security and computer information industries are really starting to boom, and clarksburg has its own fbi field office and nasa field office. Showing off the worst areas of the state and hand picking the worst and most sensational interviews from those places does nothing but rehash hundred year old stereotypes that do nothing but make the problems worse. If you want to do something fresh, truthful, and informational, you should look into the good parts of this beautiful state instead of retreading the bad parts that have been talked about for years at this point. No hate I just wish people would stop focusing on the absolute worst part of the state and show some of the good, there is a reason that no one wants to come here anymore.
Very nice of you to help them. You're a good man.
Mark actually cares for people. You look down on them.
ok
He didn't even care about rays knee , looked like he wanted out of there the whole time until he got Betty to lie. Mark would massage Rays knee for him and actually talk to him and care.
Mark does not help the Whittakars - taking them for haircuts and to Walmart does not do it - he had contact with them for years - and there was no improvement in their lives and in their hygiene - it is not that complicated to get the social services to keep an eye on them - instead Mark exploited them - click bait

Tell me what better the social services will do better than marks $100,000+ in 14 months??
Tell me how much money did you make last year yourself? Was it $120,000 plus?
@@caribcarib4337 He has raised thousands for them,smh.
Hey Tyler, just so you know Mark showed all his receipts of all the Go Fund Me monies that he has given to the Whittakers, and it's about $120k. And shame on you for trying to take advantage of the Whittakers and make Mark look bad. Go ahead and set up your own GoFundMe for the Whittakers, and they'll be calling you every few weeks saying they need thousands of dollars for various reasons. Mark had been raising money for their new home for quite some time now, but they were always telling him they needed money so he of course would give it to them because it was their money. Mark called Betty on camera, and she claims she doesn't know any Tyler, said she doesn't know who you are, and admitted to taking amounts of the GoFundMe monies on a regular basis every few weeks. The Whittakers want the house next door, which is about $200k...have fun with that and all the headaches that come with it lol.
the money was donated towards the purchase of a home and it was not used for that. The Whitakers are not money managers nor have they had access to this amount of money in the past so the funds were allowed to be squandered away. That is the story here.
damn, what's the silver lining then? @@laney612
You are to facts and logic as Russia is to diplomacy and world peace@@laney612
The Whittakers aren't under conservatorship, the money was theirs to spend legally under the law and the terms of GoFundMe. Mark could only help with their cooperation, which is often a fraught endeavor when trying to help poor people - they have a lot of needs, all the time. If you want to criticize, find someone in financial need, help them on a regular basis, then come back in a couple of years and tell us all how it went. Seriously. @@laney612
@@laney612 The money belongs to the Whittaker's to use how they choose. Should they have used it for the home they said they needed ....yes. But if you open a GoFundMe for someone, no matter the reason, they have all the rights to said money. If you hold it back they could bring legal proceedings against you.
Very Honorable thing to do Sir! You have a new subscriber here... Keep up the good work!!!!
I grew up in Wisconsin and a man was arrested for smashing my grandmas horse. Happened in the eighties. True story. Sadly.
Wow your a class act. I can’t believe you called Mark out with regards to his honor. The things he has done for that family are nothingy short than the actions of a Saint. I hope you have enough honor and dignity to publicly apologize for your crappy accusations
He pinned a comment recently talking about it.. He did not apologize.. His ego is too big for that lmao instead he thanked Mark for his "transparency"
you're*
It’s crazy what people will do for views and money. Mark was one of the few who actually genuinely cared.
There is absolutely no reason for mark to stop helping other than hes a dickhead

“Mark, if you have any honor..”
the most ironic statement of this whole video
Right! So incredibly disrespectful
Right? The absolute state of this.
Right??!!!! This lil punk isn’t doing anything for anyone but himself!!! It’s all about the views for him!
Right!?
Mark has ALL kinds of honor. Something I believe you are lacking.
I'm really glad you didn't let the exclusive contract bit slide. No one can have the only right to talk to someone
Fr it makes it seem like they've taken advantage of these unfortunate people and don't want anyone finding out.
Also given their mental capacity I would be very wsuprised if that contract could be enforced at all
Yea, that's how contracts work...

Man I go to Martinsburg all the time, the city is growing, things are starting to get nicer. Lots of new homes and people flocking in from VA. Also the city has some very nice neighborhoods around the outskirts.
I guess you'll be around to help them out when their house disintegrates, as that's why Mark was trying to get something together to get them a safe home to move into. If you had watched his series on the Whitakers you would have known that. He truly cared for them and was so giving to them. You would have known that too if you watched the videos. Too bad you didn't do your homework, Tyler. Not everyone is out to make a buck off someone less fortunate. Well, now you can be the hero...see, Mark didn't need to be the hero, he just did what he did from his heart. You owe Mark and the Whitakers a bigger apology than you will never be able to do. I truly think he was feeling like they were part of his family. Too bad some idiot had to fuck that up....for so many people. I just hope you don't desert them now that you've fucked up what they had...you really should watch the videos to see how their relationship blossomed over time, to see the joy they had when he'd show up and the sincerity of which Mark worked to help them and just to hang out with them.
This guy cares about himself and nobody else.
@@Dillinger70this says alot more about you.
@@Thy_Oasis okay Libta...
@@Dillinger70 sure, Poes
He had the money, HE chose to give it to them under different circumstances than what the money was for. MARK did that, not this guy, not the Whittaker's MARK did this so where's the money for the house that I donated too??? I was never updated that it would be spent elsewhere and I'm pretty sure There others that aren't happy either. So get up off your high horse and stop spreading negativity! It's frustrating enough, no reason to attack or insult ANYONE!
I know this, what you did to Mark is something he never would have done to you.
Mark did more with this family than you ever will
All he did was ask why the money wasn't used for a new home? Isn't that what the gofundme was for

Tyler don't owe anyone anything. He did nothing wrong. He asked a basic question and mark responded with a tantrum threatening to punish the disabled whittakers cuz he was buttsore about a simple question
@@belle70000 Mark did not have a tantrum. Wow...over exaggerate much? All these drama channels will be jumping on the BS that Tyler drew attention to. Very poor judgement.
@@belle70000bro you under every comment riding dude meat , regardless if you feel like he just asked a question. Saying shit like " if you have honor " and shit like that is proof he tried to do a hit piece . Period
@@belle70000I understand you love Tyler very much obviously but nah he knew what he was doing and to turn around and Make a video to shit on mark again is just proof . And I guarantee he's not gonna take care of them the way mark was. Let's see.
@@tonybostick763 he didn't shit on mark, he has moments where he can be purely emotional and wrong but that video was mainly updating his audience
Honestly this is really a non issue in the end everyone got their answer to where the money went, to the family demanding it
It should have been handled better so they could have better living conditions
You can argue it seems disingenuous of the righteous path Tyler puts himself on trying to do good by the Whittakers by having his own Go fund me
But if he actually goes through with it and it actually improves their living conditions or gets them a new house that's a lot in the end
People should still see the positives from both of them regardless of the semantics that don't even seem to be an issue
I didn't watch Tyler's video and come out with the idea Mark is a scammer but I did wonder why isn't there an update for his community because those same people came on Tyler's video calling mark a scammer
Tyler really didn't even say that Mark and Tyler's community came together to say it was fishy and that was clarified
So no he did not shit on him he mainly updated his audience on his own go fund me and that the merging of marks and his cannot happen as the money is gone due to the family nagging for more
What people should be wondering is how that happened, you can be mad at Tyler for whatever purpose but it in the end got results Marks community wanted which was an update
On Rocky terms unfortunately but what do you expect when Betty in his own video mislead Tyler or probably misinterpreted what mark said
They probably didn't even realize that they were the ones siphoning money from their own crowd fund campaign to now be nothing
Or someone was manipulating the family for that
You really should be questioning why it wasn't handled better
Unless there's some legal contract with go fund me and mark having to give to them at every request he should have got an account for the family to tell them where the money is going and that they'll have it if they just wait
Again they still got the money and more will go to them, I'd rather not trust anyone estranged with money like that when it dries up so much that someone working with them has to cut ties due to frustration of either them or the constant badgering for updates on them
Excited to see you take the Whittakers shopping, and getting haircuts, and replacing their roof, and siding, Buying them cars
Me too. I said basically the same thing!
Why? It's all for views! He doesn't help them behind the scenes like Mark does, He's just there for content and to smear Mark's good name. Gross. And I can't believe Betty said that either. Hopefully it was just because she doesn't want to talk to you about it. But somehow I doubt it.

What a tremendous disservice to the Whittaker family, by indicating Mark has been dishonest in any way.

Mark is a POS. He is vile and disgusting. Why does he have to cut off his “charity”? Because someone asked about it? He could have saved face and leveraged the situation for more benefits to the Whitakers or other poverty stricken people in the community but he does not want the light on himself. He has too much in his closet that he doesn’t want exposure to.

Lol I legit checked to see if my WoW Vanilla PS was running when his quest "Head West" popped.
The Whitaker's have a bigger TV than I do. 😂
Mark has given that family over 100k, they get SSI for each person in that house, yet they are still living the way they are. It’s clear that Betty has a spending issue. That GoFundMe money is the Wittikers, they drained it. Let’s be real here, that family has made more money than most people watching this video the last year, why aren’t people angry with Betty for spending money on whatever she’s spending it on and not on improving her own family’s living situation?!
Just wait till the state starts investigating theses matters regarding amout of money involved; since they receive public assistance from the state of WV.
It will open them up for Welfare fraud.
Which is why the money shouldn't have gone directly to them in that way. They are all mentally ill.
Given her limited mental capacity and her old age she is most likely being manipulated by someone or scammed outright. They're literally the most famous family in a state full of depressed addicts and predators, I'm sure people came out of the woodwork to get at their cash.
AGREED.
FACTS
Congratulations! Now that Mark is out of the way, you have new friends to take care of! Let's see how you are going to handle the situation from now on!
He won't, only 1 fallow up and that it, leave the family with taxes smh
that family isn’t anyone except the governments responsibility and their caretakers. Obviously they shouldn’t be exploited, but if you care so much, why don’t you go out there to banjo-land and completely transform their lives? I bet even with all the money and charity in the world you couldn’t. They are how they are, they seem like they have what they need and are generally content to live how they do and be left alone. Tyler doesn’t actually owe them or anybody anything. All he did was ask where the money that had supposedly been raised for them was. You got your answer because of him.
Nah he’s gonna leave them to rot
😂
Can't wait for Tyler to abandon this family after taking away their cash cow.
To me, this guy exploits way more than anyone in this field of UA-cam
This is the place where you can be both your uncle and your brother at the same time.
I paid attention. Betty was asked if Mark had given an *update* not whether or not he'd been giving them *money*. I would imagine that there'd been no house discussions recently as the Whittakers had been draining the funds.
Looks like you'll now be the one receiving the calls from the family asking for the thousands of dollars they've become accustom to receiving as well as taking care of the taxes for them.
This little cow ard will block the Whittaker's calls and move on with not an ounce of guilt.
